Context of Philippians 4:19

17It is not your gifts themselves that I want. But I want you to do good things so that God will bless you in return. 18Epaphroditus has brought the gifts that you sent to me. I have received those gifts, so that I no longer need anything. You have sent me more than enough. Your gifts are like a sacrifice with a nice smell that you have offered to God. God accepts that kind of sacrifice. It makes him very happy. My Lord God in heaven has plenty of good and valuable things. Because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will give to you everything that you need. 20Our Father God is very great! It is right that everyone should praise him always and for ever! Amen. This is true. 21Say ‘hello’ on my behalf to all of God's people there who belong to Christ Jesus. The believers who are here with me say ‘hello’ to you.
